Notes

Summary: "By applying cultural-historical activity theory and expansive learning theory to educational research, this volume illuminates new forms of educational activities as collaborative interventions in schools and communities that create expansive learning so that learners and practitioners can collectively transform their activities and expand their agency for themselves. It covers four cases of activity-theoretical formative intervention studies conducted in Japan, which are related to: fostering children's expansive learning in classroom lessons; teachers as collaborative change agents in redesigning schools; expanding the school activity from bottom up; and emerging knot-working agency in community-based disaster prevention learning. This book employs activity theory as a general theoretical framework of human learning and development to connect focal data from empirical and interventional studies on real human learning in specific educational settings in Japan. ..."
